That's almost like saying you will your favorite charity when hell freezes over, because odds of either ever happening are big.RJOh

I wouldn't dedicate a percentage but it just depends on how much I get as to how much I'd give.

Just Curious...if one could win a major lottery payout that resulted in more then $20 million gross (before taxes), what percentage would you dedicate to a charity (of your choice)?Speaking entirely of myself and myself alone, I would allocate funds in the amount of $1.6 million gross to each of my direct family members (daughter, brother, sister, neices nephews - cousins don't count) and allocate about 5% to local pet shelter our family supports and another 5% amongst other various charities....
